@@artificiyal Tf is West India? He's Indian. His parents are from Gujarat. Columbus named it west India and Native Americans as Red Indians cause he was on his way looking for India while accidentally discovering West Indies and the US
Hanuman is a Hindu God of Wisdom, Strength, Courage, Devotion and Self-Discipline. I believe this deity is also the inspiration for the character in the movie “Monkey Man.”
He was born in India, grew up in many places through his tweens and teens including a long stint in Houston where he went to high-school, came back to India, did his college from here, worked for a bit, left the job at Goldman Sachs and started pursuing music full-time, he was well-regarded in the Indian underground hip-hop scene but this track right here changed everything. Boy is global now!
And well deserved. The production is Wolds class, the rapping is world class, the bars are world class, the beat is world class... I am guessing we can expect many shii on the same level in the future from the lad.
@@winsonthomas1379 He is Indian. Born there, went to the USA cause of his daddy's job, went to high scool there and then went back to India do to Uni and stayed in India. His accent is from the time he spent in the USA
As a Cali born and raised millennials that grew up on RnB and gangsta rap this really brings back those vibes. Im totally here for it, and im really happy to support global artists like him.
I told my Nepali friend Freddie (Faroq) had Gujarati features, and he called me dumb 😂 bro it's not my fault Britian tried to rap up the entire world in their flag
@vascam I'm half Nepali myself lol. He definitely does have Gujarati features. I'm half white too and I'm always told I look like Sanjeeda Sheikh who is full Gujarati herself lol. It comes full circle😭😭
@@yulee3266 not really cool. There are lot of people killed themself doing it but for the money (not even enough to sort out their basic needs) they do it. The whole song is about the sad part of those riders life.
@@LEYASH666 I know, he went to my temple back when we didn’t even have an actual temple yet and it was just 20 families getting together for worship in a house every Sunday.
Man it really feel so good when some one across the world ,can say diffrent worlds mostly gets the lyrics and what he really meant to convey abt our culture from SOUTH INDIA in his song .. we all are not so diffrent , we just seperated by language nd its barrier . Respect to bruh Hanumankind n all support from his MotherLand Kerela India.
Hanumankind is dope, dude's family's from my state of Kerala in the South where this video was shot. Pretty sure that bar about the South had a double meaning for the American South and the Indian South
See this is such a good way of talking about the representation of your state. Alot of the other south people be segregating the fuck out of anything good that comes out of the southern part of the country. W comment
@@abhishekshukla4073 I ain't no nationalist lol but im Indian and proud of my identity, however there's a reason why keralites get defensive because the racism against us is very noticeable, and our concerns are valid.
Wherever you go on RUclips, if you open the comment section of HanumanKind's video reaction, it takes so much time to come back from Comment section because you just going reading and reading all the comments and liking all of them... what a video from hanumankind... he nailed it
First time every watching you reaction. I have watched so many reactions on this songs as I am feeling proud to be an Indian coz of this song. But your reaction is the best I've seen so far. Real, Relatable, Well Informed, Educating, and add a million more adjectives to this reaction. That is how good you are, just had to mention it. Cheers Brother!! Love from India!
Just like many others Hanumankind's Big Dawgs have been on my repeat. Your reaction video is my favorite because you really chopped up his lyrics and helped me understand the references and how artistic his bars were.
That stunt is called "Maut ka Kuwa" or the "Well of Death". It is very common in village fairs in North India and some circuses in South India. This is similar to how you have carnival fairs in the US. And this is real stunts and not CGI or some other visual trickery.
I heard he grew up in Texas so the references don't surprise me, but despite the negativity it's been getting this is dope and something different the game been needing
Loved your reaction...loved the fact that you accept music has no boundaries and it embraces all cultures. I'm the 90's kid born and bought up in India and we enjoyed hiphop culture then too. Your reaction video has been the best so far...you digged deeper into lyrics and it's meaning and what musicians should bring to the table. 😊
Best explanation for the hiding in the hoodie I’ve heard online. Love the authenticity in your reactions. With the bar “some things never leave you fully”, I could see it in your eyes that the lines spoke to you. Real bars get real reactions! Hip hop is a sport!!!
Funny thing you say you could bump this in a car. I found this song because if a Tiktok trend from the car scene. They'd show a shot of the car as they got in with the "Wait a minute" part playing, and when the door closes is when the "Big steppaaahh" part drops and it cuts to them screaming down the highway.
The artist goes by the stage name Hanumankind is an amalgam that blends Hanuman and kind. It's also a play on humankind. Dude was born Suraj Cherikut, in Kerala, India but was raised all over, including a long stint in Texas. So when he says south, he probably means both South India and the Southen states.. :)
Scru my man, I respect the hell out of you for reminding the world, it's not just pen skills, no! We need the vibe. The art to making a song is nit one dimensional. And the world and hip hop need to bring back the complete meal 🙌
I seen so many different reaction videos on YT, but I didn't click a single one because I was waiting for the Top Dawg Scru himself, definitely worth the wait, proper reactions 😎
I love, love, love this song and video! I saw one of his interviews. He lived in Texas, Africa, and now he's back in India. He said that he wrote the lyrics to this song in 20 minutes. ❤️🔥👏🏾💪🏾👑🙌🏾
This dude killed it from the first 10 seconds to the end with the chopped and screwed DJ Screw style shit. Crazy. Houston vibes. Been watching a few reaction videos and your the first to bring up chopped and screwed comments. Subbed.

He actually grew up (mostly) in Houston before going back to India as an adult, so the southern influence is definitely strong
Born in India, but grew up in Houston.
@quiet7632 my bad, sorry, I'm like 50% conscious rn
He was born in Kerala, India and raised in Texas, He studied 4th to 10th in Texas after that he moved back to India
